Mr. Roy Skillicorn
Senior Director
Video Services line
Cisco
www.cisco.com

Cisco Services and our partners have a deep knowledge of both the network infrastructure, including security solutions that require use of the network, and the video application layer. We and our partners can therefore work with customers on solving questions like: How do you send video to mobile endpoints like tablets? How do you enable interoperability across protocols?More

Mr. Chris Daly
Director of Business Development for Cybersecurity
General Dynamics C4 Systems
www.GDC4S.com

We offer a broad portfolio of secure communications and computing solutions that range from satellite communications and ground systems supporting NASA to command and control systems for the battlefield. Our offerings span the gamut of custom built, assurance products for secure voice and data, such as our TACLANE® In-line Network Encryptors and Sectéra® vIPer™ Universal Secure Phones.

Mr. Steve Collen
Director of Product Marketing
Cisco
Physical Security Business Unit
www.Cisco.com

It is pretty shocking! Situational awareness and collaboration are really important ingredients in responding to any incident, and Cisco provides solutions in both of these areas. For example, the Cisco Physical Security Operations Manager provides a single, map-based view of a particular area - that might be a campus, a series of geographically based sites, or a single building. The system operator can "drill down" into a particular alarm, obtain and distribute video of exactly what's going on, and then - using the Cisco IPICS product - tie together security staff into a talk group which links iPhones to UHF radios, deskphones, IP phones - or whatever handheld device they may be carrying.

Keyscan Access Control Systems

Many end-users are guarding their capital expenditures and with staffing levels at an all time low employers are seeking ways to optimize staff productivity and stay focused on the core competencies of the business. Centrally Managed Access Control addresses may of the concerns of business owners today; they don’t need an access control administrator, they don’t need an onsite computer, they don’t need to manage/maintain the access control database, they don’t need to perform software updates, all this and if they desire, they can lock/unlock doors, run reports, add or delete access permissions all via an internet connection using their smartphone, iPad, or laptop without any special software.

Sarix cameras are designed to maximize value. They are competitively priced and offer advanced features like ABF, CS mount lenses and built-in Pelco Analytics. Our Sarix IM Series Mini Domes are particularly value-driven, offering the advanced technology of Sarix at the most affordable price point. And getting back to the Industrial Design pillar of the technology, users save time and money with ABF and the Analog Service Jack. With these features, installers can auto focus the camera remotely, saving them an additional trip up the ladder. This is a real advantage over the competition.

One of our partners in Canada has introduced video cameras in several stores of a large retail chain. These cameras provide input to our software which constantly scans the video for known shoplifters whose photos have been stored in a watch list database. Once identified, an alert is raised to the store manager. Another Canadian partner has deployed a similar solution in a number of casinos in Ontario where problem gamblers are automatically identified.

Mr. Bill Taylor
President
Panasonic System Networks Company of America

Our new i-PRO SmartHD network cameras feature high-definition (HD) image quality and exquisite color reproduction using lower bandwidth. The six new models also incorporate the Panasonic UniPhier System LSI chip (H.264 high-profile format) to combine high-definition video and real-time video streaming (up to 30 inches per second) at a lower data size. A new 1.3-megapixel MOS image sensor enables high sensitivity (0.3 lux in color) and lower power consumption. The camera series includes both IP box cameras and fixed IP domes, including models that are vandal-resistant and meet international IP66 standards for dust and moisture resistance.

The Cleveland Transit Authority deployment exemplifies some of CyberLock’s best features. Since CyberLock cylinders do not need wiring they can easily protect mobile assets like the fare boxes in the Cleveland bus system. After deploying CyberLock, Cleveland Transit Authority saw their revenue collection increase dramatically and they realized a quick return-on-investment.

While data protection is a high priority for almost every enterprise, the primary driving factor for full disk encryption has been the worldwide proliferation of data protection laws and regulations. As high profile data breaches have sky rocketed in the past few years, many countries have passed stringent data protection laws calling for the encryption of all sensitive data on customers, users, transactions, health records, etc.
